Pyramid Valley
Pyramid Valley is one of New Zealand's great wine estates located in North Canterbury on the South Island of New Zealand close to Christchurch city. The region has a cool, dry climate with lots of sun and a long growing season. The Southern Alps to the west ensure low rainfall and long, dry autumns along with a high diurnal range help to create concentrated and expressive wines
